Women's Felloship

Women's Fellowship

Women have been playing a significant role in our church from the very beginning. “Go, gather together all the Jews that are present in Shushan, and fast ye for me, and neither eat nor drink three days, night or day: I also and my maidens will fast in like manner… (Esther 4:16)”. All of us are aware of the victory brought about by the prayer and fasting of Esther. The plot to slaughter the Jews was overturned. By the abundant grace of our Lord we do have Esthers in our church. The very first prayer cell in Chidambaranagar was started by the women of worth living there. It can be said that the church we are worshipping in today itself is a result of the relentless prayer of the women’s fellowship. The trend has continued. Women’s fellowship forms a very important integral part of the church today, supporting the church with their prayers, wisdom and valuable time.
